Rob Papen Predator 3 Now Available – Here’s What’s New
Predator, the vintage soft synth was first released in 2007. Subsequent to that Predator 2 was released in 2017. Now, the new Hybrid analogue/wavetable synth gets a redesigned interface and new features.
Rob Papen updates his classic Predator synth plugin to version 3, but is it still worth hunting down?
Predator version 3 has a redesigned GUI that, as well as looking much nicer, puts all the main controls right in front of you, making the synth easier to use.
As its predecessor, this is a hybrid instrument that can generate both analogue-style and wavetable sounds. The arpeggiator has been enhanced, multi-envelopes have been added, and there is now an Audio Follower input for sidechain control.
In addition, you can expect a better sound, as well – Predator 3 features the analogue-modelled code from Rob Papen’s BIT synth, which is said to deliver “uncompromised audio quality”. More than 6,500 presets are included to show this off.
Predator 3 runs on PC and Mac in VST/AU/AAX formats and there’s a demo version.
